摘要： A washing apparatus and control method where the washing apparatus comprises a door configured to open and close the entrance; a tub inside a main body; a diaphragm configured to connect the entrance with the opening; and a drum rotatably provided inside the tub. The washing apparatus includes a door washing nozzle to inject water for a first time in a first section and then to inject the water for a second time in a second section when a washing mode of the diaphragm is entered. The washing mode of the diaphragm including the first section in which the drum in a stopped state is accelerated to arrive at a first target rotation speed less than a second target rotation speed and the second section in which the drum at the first target rotation speed is accelerated to arrive at the second target rotation speed.

摘要： A combination clothes washer/dryer apparatus for receiving, washing, and drying clothes or other washable items includes a housing for resting atop a generally horizontal surface (like the floor), with the housing being generally box-like and having a bottom portion. A first drum is pivotally mounted within the housing, and the first drum is pivotable about a pivot axis that is oriented generally between about 10 degrees and 50 degrees up from the bottom portion of the housing and a movable door is mounted at an angle of between about 40 degrees and 80 degrees up from the bottom portion of the housing. So constructed, a compact washer/dryer combination is provided that minimizes the risk of water leaking through the door and that is easy to load and unload.

摘要： Disclosed herein are a washing machine including an air-stream guide configured to guide a rotating air-stream generated by rotation of the drum toward the spray opening. The washing machine having the circulation apparatus can prevent water or bubbles remaining in the tub and the pump room from flowing into the inside of the drum along the circulation path of the circulation apparatus, due to a pressure difference made between the center area and the outer area of the tub during spin-drying in which the drum rotates at high speed.
